Netflix is exploring Benedict’s romance with newcomer Sophie in season 4 — but who makes up the Bridgerton cast amid onscreen exits?
Over the years, Netflix fans have settled in to watch various love stories connected to the fictional Bridgerton family. Based on Julia Quinn‘s book series, season 1 of the hit period drama debuted in 2020 with Daphne (Phoebe Dynevor) and Simon (Regé-Jean Page) as the main focus of the show. Bridgerton highlighted Anthony’s (Jonathan Bailey) love story with Kate (Simone Ashley) two years later.
Before Bridgerton returned in 2024 with Colin (Luke Newton) and Penelope (Nicola Coughlan) as the focus, Netflix expanded the universe with prequel series Queen Charlotte, which premiered one year prior. Now, viewers are on the edge of their seats waiting for season 4, which will explore Benedict’s (Luke Thompson) romance with Sophie (Yerin Ha).
Netflix previously confirmed that the show will be returning for seasons 5 and 6. It remains to be seen who will be the focus of the next installments — but according to Quinn, that has already been decided.
Keep scrolling to see who makes up the cast of season 4, which is based on Quinn’s An Offer From a Gentleman:
Luke Thompson
Benedict’s personal life — and professional ups and downs — were explored in past seasons of the show, but now he is taking center stage.
Yerin Ha
Starring opposite Thompson, Ha is a maid named Sophie who is also the mysterious woman Benedict meets at a ball.
“What drew me to Sophie was that she immediately has obstacles — something that she constantly has to overcome,” Ha told Netflix’s Tudum in October 2024. “Whether it’s this battle around social status or trying to hide her feelings from Benedict.”
Katie Leung
In this retelling of Cinderella, Leung’s Lady Araminta Gun fits into the evil stepmother stereotype.
“Araminta and Rosamund are so focused on their own goals that, frankly, the Bridgertons don’t register much for them at first, beyond the fact that Benedict proves to be quite the catch this season,” showrunner Jess Brownell teased to Tudum.
Michelle Mao
Mao’s character, Rosamund Li, has been described as “her mother’s mini-me — a marriage mart pro chess player.”
Isabella Wei
Wei, meanwhile, plays Posy Li, who is “dreamy and often unserious, much to her mother’s disapproval.”
Jonathan Bailey

Bailey has confirmed Anthony is back in season 4, but he is expected to have a reduced role.

Nicola Coughlan
Coughlan’s Penelope is also still a major player in season 4 after being unmasked as Lady Whistledown.
Hannah Dodd
Speaking of next possible leads, Dodd’s Francesca is also a possibility.
Victor Alli
Hannah Dodd as Francesca Bridgerton and Victor Alli as John Stirling Liam Daniel/Netflix
Francesca’s marriage to John Stirling will continue to be explored before his (spoiler alert) tragic death.
Florence Hunt
Hunt’s character, Hyacinth, will be featured more despite being a few seasons away from becoming the lead.
